On Wednesday, February 18th, the Aldine Library celebrated Black History Month and African American potato chip inventor George Crum by sampling different potato chip varieties. Children and adults alike enjoyed eating chips while hearing about the life and work of Mr. Crum. Then, we passed out ballots and patrons voted on their favorite potato chip flavor. The variety with the most votes- the official Aldine Library potato chip- is Chile Limón!

We are getting ready for some changes at the Aldine Library! Staff have been busy emptying shelves and moving books in preparation for the big move. The library will look different when we open on Friday, January 9th. Collections will be shifted and shelving will be removed. Come and see!

The Aldine Library wishes you a happy, healthy, and prosperous new year! This is a photo of my brother-in-law giving the peace sign. We wish you peace in the new year as well! We look forward to serving you and your family in 2015.
